June 4, 2022,Camino Portugues - Etappe 5A - Auf- und Abstieg zum KeltenDorf und dem Monte de Santa Trega über A Guarda - 6km

A beautiful day and early enough. After a 16km tour and taking off the rucksack and shoes, a visit to the Celtic village and the Monte/Casto de Santa Trega was a must!

So sandals/barefoot socks on and let's go.
What a heat - on the mountain.
Above the clouds.
